“As a world leader in visual communications, Getty Images has always had a pulse on the next evolution in photography and videography, and understands how drone content can elevate visual storytelling into an immersive experience,” said Dan Burton, CEO and founder of DroneBase.

The agreement brings the high quality 4K video produced by DroneBase’s international network of pilots to Getty Images’ over one million customers. The ongoing partnership launched with an open call for cityscapes from around the world, and in the coming weeks Getty & DroneBase will announce their next theme for submissions.

This is an amazing opportunity for both Getty Images and DroneBase pilots: Getty will have a pipeline of awe-inspiring aerial imagery for their users, and drone pilots now have a new, creative opportunity to to generate revenue.
